this yr there r 2 performers. bob fitts n true worshippers. e worship is ok though i din 'jump' wif e others cuz not comfortable. i prefer e sermon more. e speaker is mark connor fr australia citylife church. quite enjoyed his sermon n manage to captivate my attn such tt i din space out or feel sleepy. its abt e parable of e prodigal son, in luke 15:11.
i hav heard n read this parable bef but it did not register to mi tt both sons r lost which e pastor pointed out. n he continued to talk abt elder sons n younger sons. jesus is e father who willingly n happily accepts his son back, e elder son refer to e pharisees n e younger son refer to sinners. jesus is always willing to accept no matter who we are.
